1 Spectrum Intelligence from D-TA Nothing Else Come Close! Scanning RF Transceivers with Integrated Recording & Playback and 10 GbE Data Networks for User Application Development Single or Multiple Antennas, Commercial or Rugged...

2 Scanning RF Transceivers D-TA s Scanning RF Transceivers are light-years ahead of others. Nothing else available in the market can offer so much functionalities for so little cost. D-TA s Scanning RF Transceivers offer: compact systems with shock-protected packaging both receive & transmit functions full bandwidth recording & playback low-phase noise, large dynamic rage, fast scanning over a wide frequency range built-in DDC & DUC (FPGA based) for programmable processing-bw selection replicated 10 gigabit data network (with VITA 49 compliance option) for user application development in a separate computer (server class). capability to do processing simultaneously while recording SigInspector TM control GUI for signal detection, record & playback without requiring user development future-proof architecture that can be scaled up to handle larger bandwidths and/or more channels (antennas) All D-TA products are based on the 10 Gigabit Sensor Processing (10 GSP) concept pioneered by D-TA. The 10 GSP offers virtually limitless scalability in terms of throughput rate expansion, Os independence and easy connection to multi-core server(s) for post processing. D-TA offers a multi-core software development framework for rapid application development using commercially available or D-TA supplied server(s). In addition D-TA offers, application development support and hands-on training to speed up user development.
